Great Jeep ready for off road or parking at the mall.

I do miss my TJ, would love to own another one. Great vehicle.

They hold their value like crazy though.

i wouldnt mind a jeep in the driveway, but the used pricees are insane! you pay alot for the 'brand'.

what jeep owners say: thats why you buy one, itll hold value!

what that really means: you pay more for one to start with, so the resale value being higher is a moot point. the car costs you the same, the initial investment is just higher.

My Dad bought his as a callback to his time in the service like 15 years ago before the "Jeep tax" really took over.

It was Jade green, which is a kind of like it or hate it color:

(not mine, but looked pretty similar minus the lift)

My brother drove it with the oil light on after I had passed it down to him and the motor seized.

Are you referring to the guy that dressed like he was going to prom?
